28 Nosler 195 gr

[Cahunter805]

No didn't even shoot at a target, accuracy wasn't the concern, Just fps consistency

I like the N570 best

I am going to go with the N570.
I am trying to load up 80 to 81 in 1/10 increments now.
I had pressure at low 81's.

Gotcha. Will you be shooting groups? Ladder test? The 195s have worked well for me but I do drill them to ensure tips aren’t clogged also.

I use the chrono and get as consistent FPS as possible (lowest ES and SD), After I get the best node, from 3 shot groups, I will do a seating test. I am currently about .015
Then I will see if I can refine even more with a barrel tuner ( low components) then I will develope dope

To each their own, but man there's a lot of waste there burning up that many components and not tracking how it throws them on target while using a labradar..

I'm trying different Powders and don't even know which one I'm going to use
Lol
I'm already on target, so that's that.

I really want to shoot the Bergers 195 EOL from my 28 Nosler. Has any one done this with a 1:9 twist successfully?
And were speeds still in mid- high 3000's ?

Mid to high 3000s is 3050-3099. Not 3500, perhaps a little attention to detail would go a long ways before posting snarky comments thinking he's talking about 3500.

My 26" 1:9 CA Barrel runs the 195 @ 3070fps very accurately. Single digit ES.

EOL 195
ADG Brass
Fed 215M
N-570

I will say this rifle builds carbon in the throat quite quickly. Short stroke the throat with a brass brush and Iosso paste and C4. It takes 4-5 to foul the barrel properly, then shoots 15 or so very accurately before the groups start to open a little. Start the process over. I can share OAL and charge if anybody wants, but will need to look at my log book tonight.

Have any of you tried US869 or magpro? I just started loading a Bergara 28 Nosler and so far the us869 is very disappointing. I was getting around 3125 with the 162 eldx, and 3110 area with the Barnes lrx with hand loads and us 869. I shot some factory hornady 162 and was closer to 3250. The us869 and magpro are the only powders I can find showing to be good for a 28. I have noticed the faster it is the better it grouped, but I am at a loss right now.

Have not used any of those powders.

My seating depth is maxed at mag length. But I bet it would get better if I could seat longer. I may explore other mag options or modify this one for consistent groups at all ranges. But we just got snow last night and it's suppose to be back to single digit temps.
I also ended up going supressed so no more barrel tuner option unless the groups just won't stay as tight as I'd like.

I have Retumbo, N570, 8133, H1000 so I can play a little.
